The Verlaines – The Lady and the Lizard Lyrics
Artist: The Verlaines
Song: The Lady and the Lizard
I need to just be alone all day
You didn’t like my song of the sea
Well that’s okay
It’s got nothing to do with you
But it sure as hell was at the time
It wasn’t what you wanted to hear
You’d already decided
On me saying ‘I love you’
I haven’t got my mind up to date
I scream back through years of desolation
Public parks and coffee shops
Where the young punks spent their force
The young lover’s love took it’s course
We’re playing lizards on the rock
Through the cigarette haze
In the hole in the wall
Where nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody at all
Risked going down to get up any higher
Well I listened to Mahler, looked over my shoulder
I spent a lot of time with dead-shit people
So I could learn to read and write
I still move within those circles
And maybe I’m still partly the lizard
And there’s a crack above the ladder of my heart
You still look at me and smile
